Real Betis have put together an impressive sequence of results, winning four of their last five matches across all competitions. Their away form has been particularly productive in front of goal, scoring five times across three away league fixtures. Furthermore, Betis remain unbeaten in their last four recorded visits to Deportivo in the head-to-head sample, securing two victories and two draws. Deportivo are dealing with the absence of N. Carrillo through an ankle injury, whereas Betis have shown enough defensive resilience and attacking potency to secure at least a point on the road.
